The further I progress in the career, the more issues I seem to have:
No more helicopter SAR landing missions available, because the only one showing on the map is not playable due to the target being located within trees on a mountainside.
Spent 2hrs flying a helicopter passenger mission, only to find I can’t progress beyond parking at the destination because I’m not able to apply parking brakes (on the R66). Come on, really?!
Unable to complete a cargo mission in the 172 because the flight path to the destination airport takes me over a mountain range and expects me to climb to impossible altitudes to get over them.
Trying to hit the “Ready to fly” button in free flight in VR means relying on guesswork because the cursor is not visible.
The Quick Reply command will randomly stop working during missions, which means they either can’t be completed or you need to skip to the next step and lose earnings.
The Mission Steps window is still not movable in VR, so it’s always directly in your line of sight.
If a mission fails due to a crash or “landing in the wrong place”, I can’t click on the Next button to proceed. I have to use task manager to exit the sim.
The only positive thing I’ve noticed since the latest patch is that I no longer have to keep changing my sound output device whenever I launch the sim. That’s great, but I’m now finding career mode virtually unplayable.
They did not test a freaking thing before release. This is absolutely ridiculous, what a bug fest. All the new content is locked behind an unrealistic career mode, having to earn credits to do all of the certifications, but half of the missions are bugged. I’m done with this, waste of time…
Can someone at Asobo/MS please return the green grass strips I’ve been landing on for years in 2020 and that are actually green in RL. They are now barely green, just brown strips of dirt. I know it’s a minor point compared to everything wrong in 2024 but I just wanted to vent some frustration about 2024 that wasn’t the usual stuff we all know is wrong. anyone who thinks it’s a season thing it’s the same colour every month of the year…… they just need refund everyone and go away for a year a sort this mess
I’m on Xbox series X, and going back to flying on 2020 is an absolute pleasure compared to 2024. Frame rates are much higher, I can use my mouse to pan around the cockpit, ground textures are a million times better, menus are less laggy. Yes 2020 had it’s faults, but it’s an absolute masterpiece compared to the trash of 2024. The one thing with 2024 that is really starting to annoy me is the constant flashing city lights shortly after takeoff and on approach. It completely ruins the experience for me.
I had such high hopes for the new sim, and if I’d have known it would have been this bad, I would never have bought it! They should have continued to optimise and improve 2020, as 2024 doesn’t even come close at the moment. I’m not sure that it will ever get to 2020 standards if I’m being honest.
I really am so annoyed and let down, and 4 free aircraft isn’t going to make up for it either!
Noticable river inaccaricies in world especially in New Zealand specifically in the Southern Alps. Appears a lot of rivers have straight lines it’s also noticable in other countries. If there is no fix is it possible to have a setting to turn off river water effects?
Also runway at McMurdo station in Antarctica is not accurate, should be considered a full runway as they land C17 and Boeing aircraft there.
Please remove trees from Antarctica!
Also sea ice is not accurate in areas in Alaska/Canada and Antarctica. Is there an option to remove this from the sim or update it to be more accurate?
Thanks so much, huge fan of the game. I was hoping this would be fixed in 2024 but nothing changed since 2020.
Apologies I couldn’t communicate this in any other way.
ms2024 brings us back to carboniferous period 350 million years ago
now we have too many trees everywhere , not very realistic
and impossible to view navaids frequencies on world map (as msfs2020)
those are 2 major bugs that make me go back to msfs2020, for a while …
I know there are many other bugs, hope Asobo will soon fix them
Actually a screenshot to show a bug that is still faulty. In fact, I wanted to write that now, for the first time, I have strong friezes. at the same time, the FPS is stable. But the picture is terribly frigid.I barely got to the parking lot and was afraid that I would crash.
Seems the poll is gone now, I guess we did had enough time to experience the new simulator.
Anyhow would appreciate at least some kind of comms regarding the next steps with clear timeline.
Maybe I am wrong but right now all we know is there will be a SU1 in Q1/25 and maybe some patches in between.
Does MS believe this is enough for the current state of the sim?
Got it but in all fairness, do we need to watch every hour long stream to get some bits of information what might come?
One short slide with some key dates should not be asked to much.
I would guess something like
Patch 4 estemated for week …
Patch 5 estemated for week …
Patch 6 estemated for week …
SU1 Q1/25
It is no rocket science, surly MS must have some kind of plan for the next 3 month
